Review for Buddy Cruise Inc, Lithia, FL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Buddy Cruise is an organization that from it's first voyage has changed my life forever.
I am one of the founders, as well as a parent of a child with DS. When we started the organization our son was three and the thought was to bring together families that shared a common bond. What we got has been so much more. The Buddy Cruise has become our extended family. Everyone who sails with us will forever be connected to each other through the bond of shared experiences, hopes, dreams and memories.
Words can not express the gratitude we have for the educational speakers that have donated their time and expertise to enlighten us. My hope is that this family continues to grow and continues to spread the mission of education, awareness and inclusion that Buddy Cruise has come to represent.
I can't wait to see everyone on the 2011 sailing.
